I'm trying to create a minimap for tanx2. The first attempt was using
Moveimage to copy 2x2 16-bit info onto the screen to compose the map on the
screen buffers, but they flicker badly. I was wondering how I could go about
dynamically creating a tim, possibly using LoadImage to set pixel data on a
sprite and then drawing it to both split screens. Any ideas anyone? Any help
appreciated.
